The Ox was Arsenal's another causalities, having suffered knee injury. But unfortunately, he has returned to training. He too is a direct player. He just rams and breaks the defense through his skills and tricks. He is not much of goalscorer, but he can create havoc in the defense. Oxlade-Chamberlain created 19 chances getting three assists.
